These indie rockers found themselves overwhelmed by the amount of data and information being cycled through the Internet every day, from pictures of friends on social networking sites to data collected by companies through advertising. It's a trend that the band felt was more mechanic than visceral, so when it came time for them to make last year's Shields album, they escaped the hustle and bustle of the big city to the wide open spaces of Marfa, Texas. The result was a breakthrough of sorts for the band as the quartet of Brooklyn natives not only got back to living life without distractions, but also released their most fluid and revealing album to date.
